Re: Do I need a sms gateway in my case?

[Jeetendra Singh]

I have to send sms to persons whose phone numbers are in a database. Do I need a sms gateway? SMS gateway is not required in your particular case, if u can live with a slow throughput and expensive solution of using a mobile device connectors like Nokia Data Suite (NDS). You can write a small program which reads the database to find the phone numbers and sends the SMS to those numbers using APIs provided by NDS for message sending. Also if your SMSC provider gives you an HTTP interface, u can again write a simple HTTP client which reads the DB and sends messages using the HTTP url given by the SMSC provider. If SMSC provider uses CIMD2/SMPP/EMI-UCP, Kannel will be a suitable choice. It also is helpful, if u r looking for a SMS Pull service and DLR management. Also, could you give me web pages where can I found information about, please? Thanks in advance.
